A viral video has emerged showing a cars close shave when driving along a busy road at night.
The video shows two lanes of traffic as they’re stuck in a queue of tailbacks.
On the left is a lorry with a large container attached to the back and on the right is a normal car.
What happens next makes for a terrifying watch.
As the lorry slowly creeps forward, the wheel gets stuck in a huge pothole.
Suddenly, the container tilts dangerously onto one side, hanging precariously over the other car.
The car quickly moves forward and out of the way as it can see what is about to happen.
Thankfully, due to good suspension, the lorry doesn’t fall over and instead hangs in mid-air, avoiding any injury.
The Imgur video has since had over 70,000 views as users were biting their nails in fear.
One user remarked: “This is why it is important to fix potholes.”
Others blamed the truck driver for the near miss.
Another user commented: “The driver that overload that truck deserves a swift kick to the shins.”
It isn’t the first close shave a driver has experienced.
A car was filmed driving along a narrow road through the forest they filmed from their dashcam.
As they speed along, a passing lorry suddenly loses its wheel which detaches and bounces off.
The person filming avoids what could have been a nasty accident.
